A friend of mine lives close by and has always passed on it considering from the outside it looks like just another pub. We were instantly impressed by the decor and ambiance. The staff was immediately amiable.
The menu was also a very pleasant surprise. Not verbose but containing a good selection a rung or two above pub fair. I was also surprised by the gluten-free section.
My friend has a deathly allergy to nearly all fruits and veg, and eating out for him is incredibly hard, but the staff were far more attentive to his needs than I or he have ever seen anywhere else.
The pot pie was quite good but needs tweaking. Their Alfredo sauce was top-tier, their milkshakes were very good and their tea selection was surprisingly varied.
This is a definite resto to return to.
